Akavoroun made it six wins from seven starts, putting up another smart effort.

He settled just beyond midfield in twelfth place in the 15-horse field. He was still giving the leader (The Cleaner) about ten lengths coming to the home turn before switching out wide at the 400m.

He then put in a strong finishing effort, getting to fourth at the 200m and continued to finish resolutely to score by three quarters of a length.

The Cleaner went to the front as usual. He steadied the early pace but picked up the tempo from the 800m point.

He turned for home with a good break and was only run down in the latter stages for a very good second, putting up an excellent effort with his top weight (60kg).

Gig had a good trip, fifth on the rails, went to second at the 200m and then fought on for a sound (1.8 lengths) third.

The favourite Henwood travelled well, midfield (one off the rails). He moved out wide on straightening, but then took a while to pick-up before gradually plugging on late for (3.1 lengths) fourth.
